Win Tickets to QTC's Carmen
Brent Lyall has it all. At 23, he has a beautiful girlfriend, two Brownlow medals, and captains one of the most powerful football clubs in the land. There’s just one small hitch. Occasionally he enjoys dressing up in women’s clothes.

Managing Carmen is David Williamson’s latest laugh-out-loud instalment.
